Editing Rukkatrukk Squigbuggy (section)

==Tabletop==
Along with the other new Ork "warbuggies," the Rukkatrukk Squigbuggy was unveiled in 8th Edition with great fanfare. However, this reception was tempered once Ork players realized that as equipped, this vehicle came in at 140 points- 20 points more than a base [[Battlewagon]]. For a vehicle that could theoretically be destroyed by only two Lascannon hits, this was clearly unacceptable. As of Chapter Approved 2019 the Squigbuggy has been reduced to 100 points, weapons included, but it remains to be seen if more Ork players will give this unit a second chance.

All in all, the Rukkatrukk Squigbuggy isn't ''bad''. If nothing else, the two squig launchers provide a rare opportunity to adjust your ammunition to your target on the fly, and the 36" range on both launchers is quite excellent by Ork standards. Depending on the type of squig used, these weapons are effective against GEQs and MEQs alike, including [[Primaris Space Marines]]. They can even be used against the toughest of monstrous creatures with no loss in effectiveness, although their performance against vehicles is not as good. If absolutely needed the vehicle can squeeze out a little extra firepower in the form of its shotgun and Stikksquig grenades, or engage in melee with its Saw Blades at S6, Ap-1 with 4 attacks hitting on WS of 4+. The Squig Mine, although a highly situational weapon, is potentially useful in edge circumstances.

Of course, the real reason to take the Rukkatrukk Squigbuggy is because it's just about the Orkiest vehicle in existence, now or ever.
